Vegan
I got you a nice vogon cake
From a misreading of a handwritten shopping list, perhaps inspired by the striking poetry of Prostetnic Vogon Jeltz, commander of the Vogon Constructor Fleet in Douglas Adams’s Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
Riverbankers – 2022

An example of Vogon poetry:
Oh freddled gruntbuggly,
Thy micturitions are to me, (with big yawning)
As plurdled gabbleblotchits,
On a lurgid bee,
That mordiously hath blurted out,
Its earted jurtles, grumbling
Into a rancid festering confectious organ squealer.
[drowned out by moaning and screaming]
Now the jurpling slayjid agrocrustles,
Are slurping hagrilly up the axlegrurts,
And living glupules frart and stipulate,
Like jowling meated liverslime,
Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes,
And hooptiously drangle me,
With crinkly bindlewurdles.
Or else I shall rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon,
See if I don’t!
—from the radio (original) version, I believe,
